I agree with Lucy that you should consider staying in Austria rather than hopping over to another country.

I don't believe that anyone has mentioned Graz http://cms.graztourismus.at/EN/ but that adorable little city would be high on my list of places to visit. Take your camera!

If you enjoy thermal bathing, there's a wonderful spa in Bad Radkersburg. Here are some web sites, in English: http://www.bad-radkersburg-online.at/english/index.htm http://iis.joanneum.at/dominico/dominico_radkersburg.htm http://tinyurl.com/gj55 http://tinyurl.com/gj6j http://europeforvisitors.com/austria/ and in German: http://tinyurl.com/gj69 (see map for locating the points-of-interest).
